I'm so far out of college recruiting I have no idea who either of those kids are. [Reply]

That leaves you with 4-year/undersized/headed to Europe guys like Perry Ellis and Jamari Traylor dealing with NBA bigs.
Any of those years (esp last year) would have been very different if not for that.
Oh I'm not debating that at all. Whatever the reason may be, the end result is that they've been crap in the paint in recent yrs. Hopefully that changes this yr. [Reply]
It looks like the writing is on the wall that Mitchell Robinson will come to KU, that is if Bill Self lets him.
He's apparently visiting this weekend and LSU is now out.
Mitchell Robinson recently packed his shit up and left Western Kentucky before starting FALL classes. One of his family members resigned from their coaching gig at WKU a few weeks earlier. Robinson is a consensus Top 10 player in the 2017 class. In order to play this season, he would have to get a waiver from the NCAA, which is probably a long shot, but not impossible. If he didn't get a waiver from the NCAA, he would likely just be an Enes Kanter situation. He would probably go pro in 2018 and never play a minute for KU.
But KU has an open scholly for this year that they aren't doing anything with anyway, and there isn't anybody out there since Jack Whitman screwed us in the buttox.
LSU no longer recruiting Mitchell Robinson, source told ESPN. Former Western Kentucky signee is set to visit Kansas this weekend.
Hey you cord cutters...is it possible to have one source like Sling TV, Amazon Video or whatever and get ALL of the following:
-ESPN
-ESPN2
-ESPNU
-FS1
-CBS
-ABC
-ESPN3 (logging in to use Watch ESPN app)
-Fox Sports Kansas City
-Big 10 Network
-MLB Network
-NBA Network
AND the ability to record the shit.
If I could do that, I would be fine finally getting rid of cable/direct TV. [Reply]
